Use this background section to understand when the tool fits, how practitioners use it, and what to consider before sharing it with clients.

Practitioner-Only Use

The product specification does not require a client-facing flow. The practitioner creates, edits, links, and revises the formulation.

Version History

Formulation history is important because a working formulation can change substantially over treatment and prior versions should remain distinguishable.

Important Boundary

The tool is not a full EHR, diagnosis generator, risk assessment, treatment-plan generator, or generic formulation builder.

Is there a client-facing version of this tool?

No. The supplied product specification defines this as practitioner-only.

Does the tool generate treatment targets?

No. Treatment targets are practitioner-entered; the system only organizes and links content.

What happens if a section is incomplete?

The formulation can remain in draft with unresolved sections and visible link gaps.
